Which came first, the chicken or the egg ?
SO fucking obvious that it was the chicken. Cell division in the simplest of bacteria occured making the first life form through mitosis rather than the egg. Really a stupid question because there is a developing chicken inside the egg.

Doesn't specify a chicken egg, I'd assume a dinosaur egg came way before a chicken.

"god" can't just conjure up an animal of any description up out of nowhere. It is cells that build an animal, and cells are alive.

but u need a sperm to fertilise an egg for the cell division to start, so technically the egg came first

And then people will argue, where the egg came from? Just give up with these pointless questions for now until we understand deeper into the past.
the egg would of came from an ancestor relative species of the chicken, from which either the egg or the sperm would of had a genetic defect to form the present day chicken that we now breed in farms.

We can only debate the life on earth because really another planets life may or may not operate by the same biological rules. But here on earth the first life forms were tiny microorganisms and everything developed from that. How did they get there, we do not really know but they were not eggs, just unicellular asexual cell division. Therefore the chicken came first in its most raw form.

Name 5 pieces of evidence for continental drift
- 200 million yr old fossils of the same plant and triassic reptiles have been found across southern continents, suggesting that they were joined together at one stage
- the structure of rocks in eastern North America match the structure of northern West Europe, suggesting that they were joint.
- coal has been found above the arctic circle, where it is too cold to produce plants, suggesting that it moved from a warmer climate
- ancient glaciers have left valleys and debris in areas too warm to produce glaciers.
